l am using them. The only thing l enjoy now is my account officer's personalised services.  lf u write him 100 times, he will reply 100 times Grin

l can't really rate them now, but so far, not bad.

l had alot of outstanding issues before l started using them, guess thats whats delaying some of the issues they are sorting out for me.

My account officer said he is confident of them meeting  up.  However, if u look at their managment profile, you will agree with me  that, they have men of timber of calibre sort of among them.  ln my opinion, they will meet up with the recapitalisation.

@atilla

1. why does the application form say address is osbourne road ikoyi while address given on website is 47a and b Glover Road. What is the registered business address anyone?

2. What are their brokerage charges?

They sound professional so far in phone conversations.

Changed office july 2007.

1.5% commission buying and selling

when you add stamp duty, VAT, SEC fees

it comes up to
2.35% buying
2.64% selling

We are very proffessional.

@atilla

1. So which is the registered business address?  (the latest one).

2. As part of the services you offer, are there any daily, weekly, monthly reports or similar.

3. Do you offer original share certificate retrieval services (i have bonus certs but lost the originals), and dividend recovery services and at what price?

4. Do you have an online presence for online execution of orders (or for account monitoring only?)

5. If I open an account from europe, how can I fund the account.

6.  I already have a cscs number with another broker (but the account is unfunded and has never bn used since i was undecided) - can I transfer this to Citi?

Regards.

Thanks very much.

@atilla

1. The latest business address is 47B Glover road, Ikoyi

2. Daily price lists, weekly evaluations of portfolio  monthly statements of accounts

3. Original share certificate retrieval services at the moment does not have any charge

4. Yes we have an online presence for online execution of orders simply send your instructions to our general email address and operations will execute it.

5. You can can fund the account using our dom accounts or using a bank transfer if you have a bank in Nigeria

6.  Each broker will have a different CSCS number for you so regardless that your have any(several) accounts CSCS will generate a new number for you since you are registering under us.

hope these have helped.

Have a nice day.

How quick is your company in responding to execution of orders? I read someone here that she/he exchanged 100 emails with your company and got 100 back. Meaning, got a reply for all. That is quite recommendable because companies there don't bother replying emails.

In which naija bank do you have an account if I will be sending money from my naija account?

Yes email orders are accepted by the company. Minimum is 100k funds or equivalent in share certificates

when the 100k is deposited, will it reflect on my CSCS account and I could use it to buy shares anytime I want or what? Kindly explain further.

@bjluv

l am not atilla, but l can answer you in the meantime.

The 100k is still your money, you will use it for share trading.  e.g l used mine to buy Japaul public offer.  They use GTB.

the execution time is not bad, l just sold my lasaco shares with them and bought oceanic.  lt all depends on your account officer.  follow up every instruction with email reminder.  Thats how l do mine.

Decision is urs.

@babaolowo     
@mypeace

Thank you very much for your assistance God will bless you.

@bjluv              The company uses GTB Plc.

The CSCS account will have your electronic shares e.g Union bank , First bank, Nigerian breweries.

While your stock broking account with us will have your money. Therefore your 100million  Smiley will be in your stock broking account where you will receive monthly statements of account by email
You will also receive weekly evaluation of your shares by email.

You can send us instructions by email, a written letter or fill a purchase mandate. These are all accepted. You normally have an account officer and can correspond with him/her and another contact officer regarding your account.


hope my post answers your questions.


Take care and barka de friday
